Ford Recalls 101,944 Taurus Sedans for B-Pillar Door Trim That Can Detach

Owner notices begin Sept. 22 with no-cost inspection and repair at dealers.

Overview

  • Recall covers 2016–2019 models built at Ford’s Chicago Assembly Plant from July 25, 2016 to March 1, 2019.
  • Ford says a 2016 process change that removed hand rollers led to incomplete adhesion of the B-pillar appliqués.
  • Loose trim may detach and create a road hazard, with 452 warranty claims reported and no crashes or injuries.
  • Ford estimates about 1% of the 101,944 vehicles have the defect, and drivers may notice peeling, wind noise or rattling.
  • Dealers will inspect and repair or replace the trim at no charge under recall 25S91, with letters starting Sept. 22 and follow-ups in December; owners can call 1-866-436-7332.
